[QUOTE="newbie_chris8, post: 701666, member: 63013"] A couple weeks ago my five year old nephew accidentally cracked my girlfriend's lcd screen on her brand new Macbook. Deciding to replace the screen on my own, I used the online instructions from screenTek. Needless to say this was a bad decision on my part, as I somehow ended up cutting the black and gray wifi wires:( . I took the macbook to my grandpa's house, and he soldered(sp?) both wires back together at the point in which I cut them. Anyways, after soldering the wires back together, the wifi isn't as strong as it once was. I have to be at least ten feet or closer to the router (there is only one in the house) for the wifi to work properly. What should be done to fix this problem?? Could it be the soldered wires? The wifi was working perfectly before this happened...Thanks in advance for the help:D [/QUOTE]
